This why trump got elected. he tapped into the emotions, needs and traumas of americans perfectly. Unlike clinton who never really connected with the voters.
i think that his acting career helped him evolve into the entertainer he is today. He learned to be more expresive and animated, gained a lot more confidence and became comfortable being a really extroverted guy with an inviting personality.
True statement. He told his promoters that he wanted to be bigger than their biggest client ~ Will Smith. They didn’t laugh but reorganized his public persona. This was all planned and he was the one that had to put in the work.
"- Do you want ketchup and mustard with that? - Ah, Ketchup. That takes me back to 1992... to a day that truely changed EVERYTHING. It all started when..."
ToeSick you know, I feel like he has a decent amount of man pride, and can be a bit egotistical, but is still a pretty good guy. Trying to act humble is better than not even trying at all.
Hey man. Just want to let you know I was having a lonely depressed weekend. But binge watching your videos added a lot of positive outlook for the upcoming week. It's good to have a reminder that we can't control much in this world but we can control ourselves and our words and how we effect other people. Good positivity. Thanks.
The Rock and Kevin Hart have this hilarious bromance that you can’t help but be drawn to. Would love an analysis of how and why their friendly banter works, because they do seem to troll each other quite a bit.
I love watching their interviews together and I've noticed 2 things: 1. They respect each other's work ethic. 2. They joke about each others physical size and looks
I find that I am slowly learning all of this and it is AMAZING, I have to rewatch these videos over and over again each month so that more information sinks in and it becomes second nature when a similar scenario pops up, the "make your answer into a story" is a great tip that I'm going to drill in harder as I still find myself speechless when asked "where am I from" or other boring-ish standard questions. I'm find it so easy to make friends/conversation at crazy parties/festivals but around "normal" people is so harrrddddd o.o
Sparky ! That’s awesome that you’re internalizing some of it! Good for you! The “normal” situations will become easier and more fun too I promise :-) Have you seen the Chris Pratt video? He’s a great example of someone who can have fun anywhere. I watch that once every few months myself, it’s one of my favorites :-)
One advice I can give you is take notes of the key points in this video, then setting a daily reminder in your phone with these notes. These reminders will soon make you improve on the aspects in which you want to improve.
This may sound hilarious, but it''s true. In England where I live it's considered very rude to ask a new friend what they do for a living, even if you are dying to know. So you ask, How do you get to work. The reply ought to be along the lines of "It takes me an hour to get to the hospital by train", and they will say e.g. "Oh, are you a doctor ?" I didn't know about this, so when a person I'd never met before asked me how I got to work I was very surprised, and would say "By taking the tube", which of course offered no such opening. Of course with so many working from home now this doesn't work so well...
OMyG I was just thinking this like 2 days ago - I was like The Rock has really grown into a really lovable Charismatic person and I think it all changed for him when he got over depression and his insecurities. I know because I too used to be reserved as well and it was when I started to love and accept myself. It's has gotten a whole lot better. I've followed his career since 98 and I see the positive change and that truly inspired me to do the same as I grow in my career as an actress! Thanks for this!!!
1:55 To capitive your listeners, build anticipation (care about your first impression, grab their eyes in the first 3 minutes) 4:42 Go beyond face value of a question, answer what they're really asking (tell a story instead of a fact when you feel like they really care about your stuff) ex: "and I'll tell you why" 8:42 Create strong responses by feeling strong emotions and expressing at 10/10 (engage in the story you're sharing)
Here’s The Rock’s secret to success and popularity: HE CARES, HE’S AUTHENTIC, HE DOESN’T SLAG ANYONE DOWN - AND HE WORKS HIS BUTT OFF - NO MATTER THE JOB. RESPECT.
You might have missed something in the way the Rock uses his voice. He uses modulation as a way to control the emotions of the people he is speaking to. When he is trying to "electrify" a crowd, he is loud and bombastic, but when he is trying to elicit more gentle emotions, he uses a softer tone. It's worth trying in your own conversation, I think
I love how you talk about how the rock builds anticipation. And then you do it yourself like on 13:33 And the coolest thing is that it actually works. Great video man, i love your channel
One of the most valuable lessons i ever learned was from a career coach that gave a talk I attended. She said she was an introvert but her profession requires that she be extroverted in certain situations and she learned to turn it on and off. I did the same and have 'fooled' people (not on purpose) into thinking I'm an extrovert in my work life which also requires it at times.
This is true, an introvert who isn’t experiencing full-on social anxiety can usually choose to be sociable… the real difference has to do with our emotional “battery”. For extroverts, spending time shooting the breeze with friends will generally help to fill that emotional battery; for introverts, even hanging out with our closest buddies will still drain the battery. The less we know you, the faster that battery drains, and it only really recovers when we get to have alone time.
I think in private around his family and friends, he probably is more like he was early on his career. Because he can be himself, and doesn't have to be "on". I think it's amazing he was able to do this. Thanks for analyzing his transformation!
Two possible theories: 1) The Rock was in a horrible toxic relationship and that bleed through to his interviews, someone like Jada Pickett. 2) The Rock died in 2004 from Wrestling and a Robot took over his body and was programmed to be a movie star, win the world over and then run for President. Prove me wrong 🌎
think i've said this before but im hoping for a video where we see charismatic traits in less physically attractive people. That way, it makes it clear that these are traits can be developed by all, like how do we know the Rock didn't just change to become looser and more carefree and casual because of his massive success? All that being said, i really like this channel great production
Ayy I didn't know you guys responded to comments that's cool. Uh idk the other guy made some good points and looking at your videos list i changed my mind. But while you're here I might as well say, I'm hoping for a video on a video on what to say or do when you notice someone else having a tough time. I've noticed that some people are so much more natural and helpful instead of awkward or uncomfortable
Haha we normally don't but I decided to today :-) What do you mean by "tough time"? If you give me a specific situation, I'll brainstorm on it and see if there's a video there!
Wow this is the type of transition I am trying to make nowadays. To become a better conversationalist who can captivate people, and myself. It's really encouraging to see the transition DW was able to make in that. Thank you for the breakdown and inspiration!
He is the realest, hard working, most humble, down to earth person that we all wish to be. That's why we love him so much! Thanks for the great break down☺
I think this really shows how anyone can become a lot better if you practice and work at it. A lot of it is him just practicing and getting more comfortable until he can open up in front of everyone.
Always look forward to the videos you guys upload. I've watched almost all of them. This one was extra awesome. Can't put my finger on what you did differently, but you guys really nailed this video.
I always thought it's a bad idea to introduce something with "you're going to love this" because it raises the expectation of the other person too much. It's only a good idea if you can deliver in an amazing style like The Rock can.
That was a very, VERY well done break down comparison analysis of the man, legend known as the Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson! You were like a CSI the way you were just picking apart the crime scene👍🏽

Great analysis. Glad you brought him up, seems like a really cool guy and truly inspiring. Could you make a video on hand movements or kinesics on general? You mentioned it in the video and it got me thinking how conscious i always feel when i try it out. I'd love to learn some way to just feel more secure about myself while doing it and not suppress myself every time. I guess practise makes perfect but i really don't know how to start.
What I’ve come up personally with with regard to hand movement, boils down to two points: 1. The human eye is naturally drawn to movement, it’s instinctive… so as a person waves their hands around, others tend to pay more attention to them just because of that. 2. One good way to specifically use your hands is to paint a picture in the other person’s mind. When talking about an event that’s happened, you point to somewhere, you use colorful descriptive words, you look over where you’re pointing and back at the person, you wave around to indicate stuff like where you were relative to the elephant you saw on that safari. You trigger their imagination to start filling in the blanks, and your hands are guiding their eyes to where things are in the picture you’re painting. These people have also mentioned that extending your hands and arms takes up space around you, which makes you larger and thus a focal point of attention.
I'd love to see a video like this about Dave Grohl's evolution from quiet, goofy drummer, to the music legend he is now. I always see him and The Rock as very similar, with both of them being people I look up to.
Hey, can you make a video on how to rally a crowd behind you, how to make them cheer when you make a speech. How to make other people pumped up? There are many examples of this, the first one that comes to my mind is in the Spartacus season 1 finale.
Just came here to learn how to not be afraid of people and this channel is helping me so much in how to deal with my severe depression! Thank you so much for this
I think it may have something to do with him being a dad now. You never notice how cold or severe you come off until you see it reflected on your child's face. It teaches you a whole new level of compassion.
Anyone else appreciate the simple ways that the lessons we can learn form each video are just implied throughout? The Thank you at the end really tied together the episode well for me at least :)
Excellent video, thank you! I appreciate how you used some of the techniques discussed in the video to introduce/frame certain clips differently, we got to see the skills played out by The Rock *and* by you! Also, there were no aggressive camera pan ins/pan outs, which I have critiqued in other comments.
Watching this video not too long after the Kevin Hart video, it’s interesting how a lot of the same principles applied between the two. probably a large reason there’s so much chemistry between them and they play off each other so well
His early videos show that he is really shy and awkward on the interview, and the latest show how comfortable and confident he is, and also much more experienced at interviews.
At 15:22 "Of course he was going to let you win; that's his job." It's not always a guarantee. There were some wrestlers (like Vader) who disliked Hulk Hogan so much, they refused to "put him over." And Hogan asked Vince McMahan several times to "talk" to Andre the Giant to make sure Andre was going to let him win in WrestleMania III. So, it's not always a given. Nonetheless, excellent video! Just added it to my Favorites list.
It will be nice to see an updated version of this now. Dwayne Johnson is even way cooler now. He really does motivate a lot of people even now more on tiktok too
I love the Rock! His early clips show a prime example of "sports speak" - athletes are trained to talk a certain way and it's sooo boring and monotonous. Then he became an entertainer and therefore his persona changed. Now he's an engaging actor as well.
It is easy in an interview format where someone is there to listen responsibly. But in a casual situation in a group it is harder bc you can feel like you're losing their attention when you speak. Thus sparking feelings of rejection and then loss of confidence.
@@StreetN1ckel I agree with you. My advice is to find common things that the group shares in common but don’t overuse it as a topic of conversation as you will be very monotone. If the group doesn’t have that spark then it’s ok, find another group and try another technique. Some people will simply not be as involved, even if you are the rock
The Rock always seems to have it naturally to me!! Thanks for this vid guys. It really helps to add some charisma on your personality no matter who you are 👌
I'll never forget when this man was late to an important event due to his front gate malfunctioning and not opening to allow him to drive out his driveway. He ripped that gate off the hinges. Legend.
1st off, kudos to you for making such an entertaining and valuable video! Secondly, Dwayne Johnson is a role model for so many of us men. God bless him and your channel!
Hey Charlie, A great breakdown of his Hollywood persona. Since I'm a wrestling fan, I can say that his persona was present even in his wrestling days. But, it has been seen by only some very selective people, who are wrestling fans. So, it would be awesome to breakdown his charm, and charisma while in the ring, that made him the most popular wrestler on the planet, and was a major boost to his Hollywood career. P.S: sorry I said Charlie, I don't know the other guy's name. But he's great too.
Siddharth Borkataky haha no offense taken ;-) And super interesting idea! I think his wrestling persona is a bit special because he’s playing a part and doing things that we wouldn’t necessarily want to do in our day to day lives. But it would be fascinating to look at. I’ll add it to the breakdown idea list :-)
This is such a good piece. I would love to see a breakdown of Tiffany Haddish as well, I've been watching her interviews of late and something about her just makes the interviewers burst out laughing and you as the audience just fall in love with her. Keep up the amazing work.
Could you perhaps do a video on how to be likable and a little nerdy/awkward? I've met a couple people who aren't super self-confident or open but their awkwardness just adds to their charm and makes all interactions with them feel more personal
I think you'd really have a great example in Tom Holland; especially with all the great interview footage of him that is recent. You'd definitely get a lot of love for a breakdown video about Tom!
Took this advice to my first Toastmasters meeting today. I watched it intentionally before leaving for the meeting and killed it. It felt very natural and comfortable. Not forced. Thank You
The man retired from full-time wrestling at 30 years old. He became one of the biggest stars and legends before he even turned 30. That has never happened before. Almost everybody knows who Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is and the big part of it are the movie fans but 80% of them are the people who fell in love with Dwayne at the time when he was back in WWE/F. This man was homeless with 7 dollars in his pocket. He will forever be beloved and a legend.
A while ago, I had a dream where I saw The Rock, invited him to my house and he literally said yes, we ended up playing the PS3 and my dad sat in the living room like "who dafack is this guy". I don't know why I dreamed this, but it was real AF and I will remember it forever. The Rock is purely a Genuine masterpiece of a Human Being.
I’ve always liked him in movies but I never really went out of my way to follow him. After watching this I have a newfound love and respect for Dwayne Johnson
Hey guys, love the content and insight. It would be nice to continue to see more analyses of people who aren't nessesarily actors or entertainers. Their lives, and the expectations of how they need to present themselves are just not so relateable and applicable to the everyday citizen. Though I recognise there is still heaps to take away from them, and there are more interviews etc available. Great work!
Great analysis! I also believe The Rock is also a genuinely happy person and there's a great sense of fulfillment that you can also feel from him. Happy for him and good for him, he's the kind of celebrity that we can look up to. It's healthy and inspiring.
Wow! I never knew that about Dwayne Johnson.I thought he always was so smiley loud and likeable. Truly amazing and inspiring to see this "before-after" example of the ability to change. This was helpful.Thank you~!}
People will quickly forget what you said, but they won't forget how you made them feel.

The Rock is one of the most coolest & humble actor in Hollywood
The thing is: The more he acts like that, the more he really is becoming that person.

Oh but there is.
Great analysis. Glad you brought him up, seems like a really cool guy and truly inspiring. Could you make a video on hand movements or kinesics on general? You mentioned it in the video and it got me thinking how conscious i always feel when i try it out. I'd love to learn some way to just feel more secure about myself while doing it and not suppress myself every time. I guess practise makes perfect but i really don't know how to start.
Top Kek there’s a chris Evans video that Charlie did a while back on hand movements :-)
What I’ve come up personally with with regard to hand movement, boils down to two points:
1. The human eye is naturally drawn to movement, it’s instinctive… so as a person waves their hands around, others tend to pay more attention to them just because of that.
2. One good way to specifically use your hands is to paint a picture in the other person’s mind. When talking about an event that’s happened, you point to somewhere, you use colorful descriptive words, you look over where you’re pointing and back at the person, you wave around to indicate stuff like where you were relative to the elephant you saw on that safari. You trigger their imagination to start filling in the blanks, and your hands are guiding their eyes to where things are in the picture you’re painting.
These people have also mentioned that extending your hands and arms takes up space around you, which makes you larger and thus a focal point of attention.
I'd love to see a video like this about Dave Grohl's evolution from quiet, goofy drummer, to the music legend he is now. I always see him and The Rock as very similar, with both of them being people I look up to.
Hey, can you make a video on how to rally a crowd behind you, how to make them cheer when you make a speech. How to make other people pumped up? There are many examples of this, the first one that comes to my mind is in the Spartacus season 1 finale.
Ben Kaz i have read this question before.
I posted it on another video
and you copied it down here too.
Just came here to learn how to not be afraid of people and this channel is helping me so much in how to deal with my severe depression! Thank you so much for this
One of the most genuine mega stars to have ever entertained. Earned the title of trailblazer
I think it may have something to do with him being a dad now. You never notice how cold or severe you come off until you see it reflected on your child's face. It teaches you a whole new level of compassion.
This channel is golden. I'm literally watching every CoC video and taking notes for every video on a word document like its an university course.
~ Love that, thanks! Hopefully we'll have more good stuff for you :-)
I hope the people running this channel know they make a big difference in people’s lives. Glad to see Dwayne get his own video!
This vid, is worth saving forever.. Great video as always man :'(
Minh Đoàn Công thank you!
Don’t cry
Anyone else appreciate the simple ways that the lessons we can learn form each video are just implied throughout? The Thank you at the end really tied together the episode well for me at least :)
Excellent video, thank you! I appreciate how you used some of the techniques discussed in the video to introduce/frame certain clips differently, we got to see the skills played out by The Rock *and* by you! Also, there were no aggressive camera pan ins/pan outs, which I have critiqued in other comments.
I burst into tears when I met Corey Glover in 2003. He spread his arms and gave me a hug - what a great guy!!
The secret sauce is time. Of course everything you’ve said too. Also, success made confident.
He's genuine, humble and generous with his time.
What's not to love.
Watching this video not too long after the Kevin Hart video, it’s interesting how a lot of the same principles applied between the two. probably a large reason there’s so much chemistry between them and they play off each other so well
His early videos show that he is really shy and awkward on the interview, and the latest show how comfortable and confident he is, and also much more experienced at interviews.
Your hard work is appreciated. Glad you brought back actors breakdown. And the arm tattoo seems to be nice. all the best, please keep it up.
Thanks Norbert! Appreciate the comment :-)
One of the *BEST* videos of the channel so far! Keep up the good work guys!!!!!
Thanks Tan Ozerk !
At 15:22 "Of course he was going to let you win; that's his job."
It's not always a guarantee. There were some wrestlers (like Vader) who disliked Hulk Hogan so much, they refused to "put him over." And Hogan asked Vince McMahan several times to "talk" to Andre the Giant to make sure Andre was going to let him win in WrestleMania III. So, it's not always a given.
Nonetheless, excellent video! Just added it to my Favorites list.
It will be nice to see an updated version of this now. Dwayne Johnson is even way cooler now. He really does motivate a lot of people even now more on tiktok too
I love the Rock! His early clips show a prime example of "sports speak" - athletes are trained to talk a certain way and it's sooo boring and monotonous. Then he became an entertainer and therefore his persona changed. Now he's an engaging actor as well.
Do a video about Ragnar Lothbrok's charisma
TOPCZ omg I would love to see that
TOPCZ yessss
do it fahet
Yes please I second this!
It is easy in an interview format where someone is there to listen responsibly. But in a casual situation in a group it is harder bc you can feel like you're losing their attention when you speak. Thus sparking feelings of rejection and then loss of confidence.
@@StreetN1ckel I agree with you. My advice is to find common things that the group shares in common but don’t overuse it as a topic of conversation as you will be very monotone. If the group doesn’t have that spark then it’s ok, find another group and try another technique. Some people will simply not be as involved, even if you are the rock
The Rock always seems to have it naturally to me!! Thanks for this vid guys. It really helps to add some charisma on your personality no matter who you are 👌
your videos are getting better each video man! I really love this!
~ Appreciate it!
I hope, you’ll have 10M very soon! Amazing channel!
~ Appreciate it Zafar!
I wonder if this really is just his self assessment and adjustment or its always been just him. Great breakdown vid, thanks for making it!
Probably your best video, Ben. Well done.
Leading Muscle thanks!
I'll never forget when this man was late to an important event due to his front gate malfunctioning and not opening to allow him to drive out his driveway. He ripped that gate off the hinges. Legend.
1st off, kudos to you for making such an entertaining and valuable video! Secondly, Dwayne Johnson is a role model for so many of us men. God bless him and your channel!
Thanks Wasi Saleem !
Hey Charlie, A great breakdown of his Hollywood persona. Since I'm a wrestling fan, I can say that his persona was present even in his wrestling days. But, it has been seen by only some very selective people, who are wrestling fans. So, it would be awesome to breakdown his charm, and charisma while in the ring, that made him the most popular wrestler on the planet, and was a major boost to his Hollywood career.
P.S: sorry I said Charlie, I don't know the other guy's name. But he's great too.
Siddharth Borkataky haha no offense taken ;-)
And super interesting idea! I think his wrestling persona is a bit special because he’s playing a part and doing things that we wouldn’t necessarily want to do in our day to day lives. But it would be fascinating to look at. I’ll add it to the breakdown idea list :-)
This is such a good piece. I would love to see a breakdown of Tiffany Haddish as well, I've been watching her interviews of late and something about her just makes the interviewers burst out laughing and you as the audience just fall in love with her. Keep up the amazing work.
Could you perhaps do a video on how to be likable and a little nerdy/awkward? I've met a couple people who aren't super self-confident or open but their awkwardness just adds to their charm and makes all interactions with them feel more personal
The Magic Potato great idea! Any actors or characters that come to mind that fit the bill?
I think you'd really have a great example in Tom Holland; especially with all the great interview footage of him that is recent. You'd definitely get a lot of love for a breakdown video about Tom!
Absolutely will do! This one is a matter of "when" not "if" :-)
It amazes me how this channel manages to make new content with lessons that are new to me!
Took this advice to my first Toastmasters meeting today. I watched it intentionally before leaving for the meeting and killed it. It felt very natural and comfortable. Not forced. Thank You
That's awesome!
This video is gonna skyrock well above the 1 million views... great content
~ Thanks +Aitor! Glad you're digging the content. :-)
You guys should make podcasts of this videos! very informative vids. keep up the good work!!
The man retired from full-time wrestling at 30 years old. He became one of the biggest stars and legends before he even turned 30. That has never happened before. Almost everybody knows who Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is and the big part of it are the movie fans but 80% of them are the people who fell in love with Dwayne at the time when he was back in WWE/F. This man was homeless with 7 dollars in his pocket. He will forever be beloved and a legend.
What a amazing video! Really the 16 best minutes of my day!
That’s Tristan Engeler awesome! This makes my day to read :-)
Very awesome video, Ben! Glad to see you working on the channel with Charlie!
Thanks ScruffyTusks ! Glad you enjoyed it :-)
A while ago, I had a dream where I saw The Rock, invited him to my house and he literally said yes, we ended up playing the PS3 and my dad sat in the living room like "who dafack is this guy". I don't know why I dreamed this, but it was real AF and I will remember it forever.
The Rock is purely a Genuine masterpiece of a Human Being.
Loved the before and after comparisons - such a striking difference! Something to aspire to!
Very well made compilation, You guys are doing a brilliant job.
Ishaanstube thanks a lot I super appreciate it! Now I need a topic for the next one haha
Well done! This was not only informative but inspiring.
Honestly the best charisma on command video I have seen so far. These are great!
I’ve always liked him in movies but I never really went out of my way to follow him. After watching this I have a newfound love and respect for Dwayne Johnson
Were we supposed to hear that one section of his interview? It's silent for some reason.
Conrad Carpenelli yes it's really weird at 7:36 there's a silent sport in the interview
Woah, is it common then? I thought my phone speaker was broken... In any case I could hear that part using earphones
I think it was fixed somehow... I'm getting it now
7:26 right? Still can't hear with my phone speakers.. it might really be broken 😓
I can’t hear the Howard stern interview.
Great Job guys!
You really show the real transformation of a confident human being.
Keep the good vibes
~ Glad you like it!
That interviewer at 14:30 is so good, he's so enthusiastic with movies and wear's his interest's on his sleeve!
anyone else, have no audio for the Stern clip?
I though that was the point, no smile on the clip vs smile on the accompanying photo - bad example though.
Hey guys, love the content and insight. It would be nice to continue to see more analyses of people who aren't nessesarily actors or entertainers. Their lives, and the expectations of how they need to present themselves are just not so relateable and applicable to the everyday citizen. Though I recognise there is still heaps to take away from them, and there are more interviews etc available. Great work!
meimei any suggestions? Celebrities are nice because there’s footage of them in a variety of situations. I’m definitely open to suggestions :-)
Great analysis! I also believe The Rock is also a genuinely happy person and there's a great sense of fulfillment that you can also feel from him. Happy for him and good for him, he's the kind of celebrity that we can look up to. It's healthy and inspiring.
Wow! I never knew that about Dwayne Johnson.I thought he always was so smiley loud and likeable. Truly amazing and inspiring to see this "before-after" example of the ability to change. This was helpful.Thank you~!}
Галина Холмецкая I’m glad you liked it :-)
Deffinety the best video from you:3 great job!
Thanks Patrick!
I like this one. I think the old interviews of the rock makes it feel like I am capable of expressing more of myself.
I've become more confident over time too. When I was younger I was extremely shy.
